Congrats! Nice course. Never got a hole in one. Witnesses? I think you can get a trophy from the “Hole and One Association”. My ex-wife used to live on the 5th hole of that course, I think. I got a few hole in ones there, but that’s another sport.

Congratulations! Was that euphoric or what!

Got my one and only August 2017. Luckily on a 225 three par with an elevated tee box so I got to watch it all the way.

I was golfing with 11 buddies, and the bar was some what empty when we got in...… which helped the bar tab..... the other 3 with me saw it.

You hit your 5 iron 156 and it still had to roll 15ft ?
Was that from the women's tee?:D

I'm just jealous:( congrats to you sir!

lol. I was thinking the same thing.

As the OP, I wouldn’t tell people which iron you were using. Just say an iron. :D

I learned a long time ago.... my game is my game.... my 5 iron is good 150-165 yards... sometimes 50 yards ... IT IS GOLF ⛳:p

If I tried to hit my 5 iron what the other guy hits...... it’s dumb... I play my game..... I’m just real happy it rolled to the left 15’ and dropped in :p

I got one while playing with Justin when he was a little guy. I was all excited and he couldn't understand what the big deal was...."Aren't you supposed to do that Dad?" haha

He knows the difference now of course

I think my Dad had something like 13 of them. He was a below scratch golfer and hustled golfers all over the world. He was shooting his age when he passed. RIP Pops!

Me too......That used to be a 9 iron for me and sometimes a wedge. I doubt I would do it these days though. Shit, I know not these days at all.

It doesn't matter what you hit when you make that hole in one....most of it is luck anyhow.

Two here....

1st: mid 80's PGA West Palmer course, shortest back nine hole (12,15???) along the cliff and adjoining water channel. Wedged

2nd: late 80's, San Clemente back nine 15ish?? 190 down hill, 5 iron 1ft beyond ...

sounds like time for another... or maybe I just SUX now.... current 9.3 index

back then I was around 4-6

Congrats!! No better feeling on the golf course!! I have one. Laughlin Ranch, 7th hole. 165yards with a 6 iron. It's an elevated green, with a big mound in front so you barely see the top of the flag stick from the tee. We were playing as a 5 some, and NO balls on the green, everybody went long, but when we we're looking around, only 4 balls off the green. My buddy walks over to hole, looks at me and says "hey dumbass, come here" and points down at the hole. There was my ball!! I kept the ball, the score card and the flag from the hole.

Congrats. Nothing better than actually seeing the ball in the hole and then fixing that divot.
I finally got one on 16 at Black Gold. Playing with co-workers that were talking during my backswing. Maybe that’s the trick. It was on a weekend and clubhouse was packed.. I skipped it and ran home for already paid for beer

The Grand GC - Hole 17 Par 3 205yds, 3 iron. It was a business golf round with potential customers that I never saw again. Bar was closed, Pro gone for the day. Now every time I step up to a par 3 I think I can hole it!

Never had one. At Dallas National a few years ago I hit about 1 inch in front of the cup and had a few other's like that on par 3's. My bro who is about a 3 handicap has also never had one. My buddies son who plays for his High School has had 3 of them.


This was before one of the best shots i have ever hit. It is a 240 yard par 3 into a 25 mph head wind. Hit a little cut with a 3 iron pin high 2 feet away.

One in my lifetime. Countless ones, it seems, within heartbreaking inches of dropping.
Handful of eagles.

I have a unconfirmed hole in one. My buddy Ned and I were playing a night game at a 3 par course in South Gate and on the last hole I made a beautiful drive that was dropping right onto the green and they shut the lights off. We searched everywhere for the ball but couldn’t find it. The next day Ned went back to the course when they opened (he lived right next door) and after looking all around he finally looked in the cup and there was a ball in there. No way to confirm that it was mine but I would like to think so.

Oh yeah I almost forgot that I once made the incredibly difficult shot past the spinning windmill with a two cushion bank at Golf & Stuff.:D

As a teenager saw a buddy have a hole in one using a Range Ball. He was quite proud of himself and announced it to the pro shop. They tried to take their ball back, so he ran. Lol

Got my only one in the Bahamas playing with my buddy Ryan Frahm (Dodge dealer) and Jeff... Who was the GM for KOLA 99.9
It was the Radisson course in Nassau, on the front 9. Teed up and had a good feeling about my shot. Swung, picked up my head. Topped the fuck out of the ball and added a little California hossle fade. We all watched the it worm burn up beside the lake just to the left of taking a bath. It runs up and on the green and I hear the rest of the 4 some start yelling "Go In!"
The ball hits the pin and drops! I couldn't believe it! Neither could they.
The greens keeper witnessed it as well so I gave him $40, to grab beers and cigars.
